Now home to a lifestyle hotel, the former KFC building in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, is yet again ready to be the tapestry for stunning events. Hyatt Centric City Centre Kuala Lumpur Celebrates Its First Anniversary with “Centric Turns 1 – Book, Scratch & Win” and a line-up of Festive Offerings. With the PETRONAS Twin Towers turned into giant representations of Christmas trees, it will be difficult to find a better backdrop for a month-long celebration.
We had the privilege to be invited to their pre-launch tasting, which happened on the 25th November. The theme "Denim Red" at first sounded like a code word, but turned out to be the request to wear jeans of sorts with red clothing. Or accessories. Matched the Twin Towers lighting later that night. And the wine that was served.
As if one reason to celebrate is not enough: Hyatt Centric City Centre Kuala Lumpur rings in its first anniversary this December with a double celebration. For extra excitement, the launch of its exciting “Centric Turns 1 – Book, Scratch & Win” campaign highlights the culinary delights for this festive season. In a series of festive dining experiences at IL Forno, the hotel’s signature Italian restaurant, the food is supported by a month-long Festive Happy Hour at @21 Rooftop Bar. City-dwellers and holiday makers are invited to sample limited-edition holiday cocktails served against sweeping views of the city skyline in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. Curious travellers and savvy locals can look forward to festive cheer, elevated flavours, and rewarding surprises!
In celebration of an incredible year in Kuala Lumpur, Hyatt Centric City Centre Kuala Lumpur invites guests to participate in its first-ever “Book, Scratch & Win” campaign. Until 18 December 2025, guests who book and check in between 1 December and 18 December 2025 will enjoy the opportunity to scratch and win exclusive rewards upon check-in.
“Celebrating our first year is incredibly meaningful — and this campaign is our way of thanking our guests for supporting our journey in Kuala Lumpur,” says Sebastian Krack, General Manager, Hyatt Centric City Centre Kuala Lumpur. “Every stay comes with a chance to win, making the festive season even more exciting and rewarding.”
In conjunction with the 1-year anniversary celebration, the hotel’s signature Italian restaurant, IL Forno, presents a culinary festive line-up inspired by the warmth of la tavola italiana. Guests can look forward to specially curated Christmas Eve Dinner, Christmas Day Lunch, New Year’s Eve Dinner, and New Year’s Day Lunch menus crafted by Executive Chef Carbone Vincenzo and Chef de Cuisine Christian.
The menus feature handcrafted pastas, rustic roasts, festive Italian dishes, and signature desserts — blending Italian tradition with Kuala Lumpur’s vibrant flavours.
“Food brings people together, especially during the holidays,” said Executive Chef Carbone Vincenzo.
“Our festive menus are crafted to feel comforting, joyful, and perfect for sharing,” added Chef de Cuisine Christian.
Guests dining at IL Forno during the festive season will also enjoy exclusive perks and the option to extend their celebrations at @21 Rooftop Bar, featuring skyline views, creative cocktails, and countdown excitement.
I don't always drink Grappa, but when I do, I see to it that an Italian chef is joining me.
